What did i do today - Part 1

Went to Brunswick to repair my bike. The rear-right indicator went kaput so it really need to be changed, otherwise it will be dangerous to ride my bike (enough with hand signal). I have to admit that because of my own stupidity there goes my salary fixing it... FX Motorsport, that's the name of the shop. The prices here ain't cheap but compared to other places, the cost of the labour alone will definitely blow your budget. Furthermore, I don't need to make any appointment here (I still remember there's one particular shop, I need to make an appointment first just to change my flat tyre, crazy...).

While waiting for my bike to be fixed... I asked for permission to snap some photos...

Benelli Tornado Tre 1130 - I don't know why these Italian manufacturer prefer to use a 3 cylinders configuration. It's quite awkward.

What cool with this bike are the twin fans at the back for the radiator.

P/s Huhu, the guys here suggested that I upgrade my engine from 125cc to 150cc. They will rebore the cylinder plus changing the piston, rings and adding an oil-cooled system for the bike. The advantages??? Better torque, power and hopefully an increase with the maximum speed so that it can be ridden on the freeway... Sounds good but the downside of it is...It cost a bomb... Sigh...
